Misinterpreting numbers in utterance

[krisgesling]

Issue from Forums, text copied here:

I have a working Homeassistant and have installed the Homeassistant skill on Mycroft. Mycroft appears to communicate with my HA instance. I can manipulate one of my actuators with verbal or typed commands.

I have some other actuators ( reflashed Sonoff with Tasmota ). Since I have four of these, their name on HA are suffixed with the numbers 1-4. The skill seems to get fixated on one particular actuator and ignores the number I actually want to address. This is not a speech recognition problem since a typed command does not work either.

In short “turn on blabla 1” will result in mycroft trying for instance to manipulate “blabla 3”.

I am seeing a similar issue to this. Any device with at least some shared name is being confused for another.

Hey Mycroft, turn on the lounge lights

becomes

Lounge lamp turned on

...

Hey Mycroft, turn on the TV

becomes:

TV Mute was turned on

I have just upgraded from Mycroft 18 with the old pre-forked skill. Everything was working as expected on the older stack.

@scottsweb is this still valid on your setup? I haven't seen this in my testing but I don't have many of these use cases

@stratus-ss I turned off my Mycroft Pi a few months ago as I wasn't really using it much. It was still getting confused until that point in time.
